The splits on my big toes are nearly healed. Compare this to what they looked like ten days ago ... split open and bleeding. I wrap them once a day each morning with gauze and a good dollop of cream then bandage.
Even with the twice daily moisturizing, the heals of my feet are still showing signs of drying and peeling skin. I’ve tried wrapping them with a variety of gauze, bandages and tape but it all seems to slip off during the day. At night it’s better because I put socks on and am off my feet. I may have to go back to the medical supply store to see what else they have to offer.
If you look at the picture of my beautiful feet ... you will notice some brown spots developing. I have some small ones on my hands too. The Onc didn’t seem too concerned.
My hands don’t seem to be affected by the seasonal dryness as my feet. I do notice some layers of skin peeling off so as a preventative measure I put tape on them ... especially my thumbs.
